Build Description
This ship is an all around scout, miner explorer that can take a beating and defend itself. Highly maneuverable, and engineered it is a consistent generator of mining credits. You could trade the 3A extra collector limpet for a fuel scoop for range. This is how I initially had it, but with the Fleet Carriers I traded it from more efficiency with limpet collection and use the Fleet Carrier as my Lilly pad to jump from. It is setup for any type of mining I may encounter, laser, core or sub surface, and often times find myself taking advantage of all three when I’m out. It has been a good ship and has paid for itself many times over.
Pros and Cons
Materials Required
The following numbers assume the following rolls required to progress:
Grade 1 rolls - 2
Grade 2 rolls - 4
Grade 3 rolls - 5
Grade 4 rolls - 7
Grade 5 rolls - 10
This can vary greatly since rolls are randomized events, which means these are at best estimates to target.
